Cape Town Festival of Beer, the largest festival of beer in South Africa, is just under a week away!

The Festival will be taking place next weekend on the 23rd, 24th and 25th of November at Hamilton’s Rugby Club, and promises to titillate every taste bud.

Cape Town’s Festival of Beer is a celebration of brewing heritage and craft from around the world. Featuring almost 150 brands; this is the premier celebration of all things beer.

The Festival is SA’s largest annual gathering of beer enthusiasts, connoisseurs and those just wanting to learn more about beer. The weekend promises great entertainment for the whole family; a variety of beer and food, music, rugby and is a highlight on the Cape Town calendar.

Expect over 50 breweries – both international and local – and a limited edition of beers brewed just for the Festival! Also, learn more about the appreciation of artisanal beer and perfect food choices to pair with each brew.

This year the Cape Town Festival of Beer will be bringing you guided beer tours with experts to ensure you get the most out of your experience. Let your guide take you around while you meet the brewers and sample a variety of beers, watch home brewing demonstrations and participate in blind tastings. And if that’s not enough there will also be beer judging, workshops, a beer pong tournament and the highly anticipated Beerlympics.

The Cape Town Festival of Beer is excited to have partners Santam come on board. For those who prefer less kick in their drink, Santam will be providing a selection of alcohol-free designated driver drinks. Santam will also be offering a limited amount of complimentary taxi rides and driver assist vehicles at the festival to ensure convenience and safety for everyone.
